   Hi All
   A complex equation and its complex conjugate are linearly dependent or independent
   thanks

   Is the complex conjugate a multiple of the original number?

   The equation is
   [tex]\phi\ast(M^{2}-\phi^{2})+m^{2}\phi=0[/tex] where m and M are real

   Okay, so what is its "complex conjugate"? And what does it mean to say that two equations are linearly independent?
